Costume National Glass House

Fashion showroom

Milan - Italy

2002

A large greenhouse. A transparent glass structure that speaks of the origins and cosmopolitan and contemporary nature of Costume National. Architecture that brings to mind the white structures in southern Italy and at the same time the modernism of 1960s Palm Springs, sun-drenched Mediterranean patios and historic functionalist rigor. The building is built on three large terraces over an existing showroom. The rest of the space has been transformed into pools that reflect the sky.
